Clindamycin mycoplasma

Common Questions and Answers about Clindamycin mycoplasma

benzaclin

I have seen about 3 different gynos, and no one can diagnose me with anything besides BV. I was given clindamycin for 14 days, not cured. This has been going on for over two months now. I haven't been having sex. I am absolutely miserable, can't get out of bed and am having my life stripped from me. I had been doing research, and came across Mycoplasma Hominis and Genitalium, as well as the ureaplasmas. I know that these are difficult to cultivate and sometimes occur naturally in our bodies?

Went to a urologist week 2 and he started a course of ciprofloxacin with out any tests, the symptoms had reduced but on last day of the 5 day course the symptoms relapsed. On week 5 Got tested Stds and was positive for mycoplasma hominis, the culture was resistant to tetracycline, pefloxacin, doxycycline, ofloxacin, clindamycin, minocycline, erythromycin, clarithromycin and josamycin. The doctor adviced a course of moxifloxacin for 7 days and assured me that it will clear up.

I also feel better on antibiotics that treat strep, like clindamycin. I had mycoplasma and Lyme but think hidden strep more the problem and I do better if I stay on it with probiotics. Most probably won't understand but undiagnosed stealth strep is also a problem doctors don't deal with and pharmaceutical companies won't ever let them, I'm sure. I had more than one undertreated strep sickness when younger.

I had to take 4 different treatments of Metronidazole before switching doctors because the symptoms weren't changing. This new doctor tested me and said I had Mycoplasma and Ureaplasma and placed me on Metronidazole and I believe Azithromycin for a week with no success! The pain is started to move to my lower back and now I'm having 'spasm' like pains where it feels like someone is pinching my ovaries, acne, oily face, mood swings, fatigue...the list goes on.

The reason that the other poster could have been cured by cipro is that she may have had a Mycoplasma and it may have been sensitive to ciprofloxacin. But the standard treatment for bv is either metronidazole or Clindamycin. So you can try the cipro and see if it clears up but if it doesn't then if can take clindamycin I would then take probiotics after. Cipro can treat a lot of UTI's but not all. It depends on the bacteria that is causing the infection and how resistant it is.

Also positive for Anaplama, mycoplasma pneumonia, and of course - Lyme. Treatment is making me feel so bad. And it doesn't go away as you may expect of a herxheimer. I'm on Clindamycin now and I'm pretty sure this one is doing some killing, not just side effects. I've been giving in on a lot of medications, mainly due to unacceptable side effects. So, like how long should I expect to feel worse before I give in on this one?

I respect the opinions of the STD experts but I have some, I believe, legitimate concerns about the potential of Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis to cause symptoms and disease. I practice pediatric and adolescent GYN and reproductive endocrinology and appreciated about 9 years ago that patients were having various symptoms and signs which could not be explained by the usual microbiological testing (i.e., GC, Chlamydia and genital and anaerobic vaginal/cervical testing).

(Detoxing of spirochetes or other pathogens and toxins)
In the event of a pathogenic Mycoplasma infection or co-infection present in the body-extremely common with fibro-most invasive procedures such as injections may trigger an awakening and activation of these pathogens.
To be certain you have to find a specialist in these infectious conditions
for the specific testing and dx.

Hi John,
well the reason that we are doubting desquamative vaginitis is bcos my ph levels and lactobacilli have returned to normal and yet the profuse ischarge continues.
I did 2 months worth of cream, clindamycin an then clindamycin mixed with clobetasol, and within 3 days of stopping the cream, my symtoms were back to profuse. I also tried a short burst of oral steroids with no noticeable improvement.

I had oral sex as well as unprotected sex with a girl I was seeing. We slept together for a few days and I definitely received enough oral to get an infection.
What's your experience with it shaky? My doctor won't give me any antibiotics, I've run into a wall with getting treatment for this. They're sending me to a pain clinic, but it seems like it's an std or whatever, with my penis being discoloured. Have to say it's all been a bit of a nightmare and the doctors don't really listen.

chlamydia (both the STD and the lung infection, though they have nothing to do with each other) and mycoplasma pneumonia. I believe this type of antibiotics are named macrolid antibiotics (roughly translated from my language).
Tetracyclin works against the mentioned infections and I don't think it causes prolonged QT.
Your concern is real, but I would assume your doctor would have considered this. Anyway, ask him.

I could feel dry eyes, a bit stingy sometimes. Discharge still there.
3x300 mg of CLINDAMYCIN HYDROCHLORIDE daily and
‌3x300 mg of NIFURATEL daily,
‌Both for 7 days.
‌Still no improvement.

Usually i have to **** around every 2 days. Now it is up to 3 times daily.

I was diagnosed with BV a year ago and prescribed antibiotics (Metro. and Clindamycin) and nothing has eradicated the infection. The doctors go back and forth treating me for BV (Metro. & Clindamycin & Yeast (difulian) but nothing helps. I asked my doctor exactly what the culture stated - she said no yeast and could not identify the bacterium. She said that I would just have to live with this.

Recently I switched doctors and went to a female gynocologist who diagnosed me with ureaplasma/mycoplasma. I was given doxycycline to take for 7 days and told that the symptoms would go away. However the symptoms have not gone away & I still have the daily discharge and the occasional sour odor. Most times there is no itching just the white discharge, however when the discharge turns yellow the odor is also present & then there is a slight itch. What can I do about this?

OK you are taking clindamycin (dalacin) and metrodinozole (neopenotran). They must think that you have either bacterial vaginosis or mycoplasma or ureaplasma. Did they do any testing?
Is he taking meds? Your meds won't affect him.

In the meantime, he prescribed Acyclovir 400mg TID for 10 days, clindamycin, and more diflucan.
Soon after treatment with the Acyclovir, I noticed a change for the better. My ulcerated lesions begin to heal and the discharge diminished. The culture test came back positive for Herpes, however the blood test was negative for HSV I and II, most likely due to the fact that I haven't developed antibodies yet.

Finally an oral pain specialist said I'd probably been on the wrong antibiotics for the kind of infection I had and put me on clindamycin. In 2 weeks on it I was feeling MUCH better, and the infection felt dramatically reduced. He usually works with TMJ (which I don't have) and infections are not his specialty, so he said I should follow up with a doctor in internal medicine.
I saw an internal medicine doctor.

My husband snuck me in a bag of chips and hour before I was discharged and the pain stopped in about 30 minutes.
I was on biaxin for six months for mycoplasma pneumonia and strep in my blood along with clindamycin off and on. I had not ONE attack. Is there a correlation there?
And, I read on this wonderful internet that if you have damage to your pancreas, your life is shortened, and you die. Is this true?
I have had weight GAIN, not loss.

I'm also stopping the Alinia and Coartem in order to go back to Clindamycin for a while.
I hadn't heard that muscle twitches could be from Babesia. I always thought those were either from Lyme or Bartonella. Magnesium always relieved my twitches somewhat.
I thought my prior chest pain was from Babesia, but after reading your post, I'm going to read about histoplasmosis. My P.A. said she's concerned we're missing something in me.

Ok, so I am getting inpatient. I have Bartonella, Mycoplasma, Ehrilichia, and probably Lyme. I am one of those unlucky very sick, mulitple co-infected indivduals. I got ill in July of 2007 and saw multiple doctors and experimented with different treatments. Some things helped short-term, but nothing consistent. Most recently I have been on antibiotics. I have been taking them for about 3 months now.

Although, difulian or metro. does not help. I've heard about a bacteria infection called mycoplasma genitalium - does anyone have any informaton regarding this? I was tested for my STD's and they came back negative. But, I do not believe they checked me for this. During my last visit to the doctor, she told me I just had to live with this. I can't accept that - I've heard of other treatment such as boric acid. Where can I purchase that? and how much do you use?

Pathogenic infections such as All Borrelia species- not just Borrelia Burgdoferi,Anaplasma phago­cytophilum, Babesia microti, Babesia duncani,Bartonella henselae, Bartonella quintana, Coxiella burnetii, Ehrlichia chaffeensis,Francisella tularensis, Mycoplasma fermentans, Icognitus and other Mycoplasma species, Rickettsia rickettsii, viruses such as HHV-6,nematodes. These are extremely difficult to detect!!!
